The information on how much money spent on the advertisement on foreign media is not available with the Bureau of Outreach and Communication.
"It is shocking to see that central government spent almost Rs 1315.83 crore. Which means the government spends Rs 3.65 crore per day. That's a huge amount but they have given just Rs 600 crore to Kerala state which is in distress due to floods," said Desai.
